Accesibility of crimped/soldered cable joints?
Can anybody quote references from BS7671 or the OSG that says that crimped
or soldered cable joints do NOT have to be accessible for inspection? (Something that came up in my CG2381 training today.) -- John Stumbles Fundamentalist agnostic |

"526-04 Accessibility of connections 526-04-01 Except for the following, every connection and joint shall be accessible for inspection, testing and maintenance: (i) a compound-filled or encapsulated joint (ii) a connection between a cold tail and a heating element (e.g. a ceiling and floor heating system, a pipe traceheating system) (iii) a joint made by welding, soldering, brazing or compression tool (iv) a joint forming part of the equipment complying with the appropriate product standard." Part (iii) is the bit you are after. -- Cheers, John. /================================================== ===============\ | Internode Ltd - http://www.internode.co.uk | |-----------------------------------------------------------------| | John Rumm - john(at)internode(dot)co(dot)uk | \================================================= ================/ |
